Creating a single-day travel itinerary for multiple tourism destinations in Kuala Lumpur using integer linear programming of travelling salesman problem / Muhammad Ayman Nor Isjamal Naser
Get PDFThis study presents a novel approach for creating a single-day travel itinerary with an optimal visit sequence for multiple tourism destinations in Kuala Lumpur. Leveraging the principles of integer linear programming and the traveling salesman problem (TSP), the research aims to address the challenge of efficiently organizing visits to various tourist attractions within a constrained time frame. The objectives encompass the identification of key tourism destinations based on visitors' preferences, the determination of the shortest travel times between these destinations using an integer linear programming model, and the establishment of a comprehensive travel itinerary with a specific visiting sequence. The methodology involves the utilization of the MTZ-TSP method and its integration into CPLEX to derive the best sequence for allocating time at each tourism destination. The findings of this research endeavor to offer a systematic and optimized approach for crafting travel itineraries, thereby enhancing the overall tourism experience in Kuala Lumpur
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Women’s rights in the practice of polygamy in Malaysia / Noordura Mohamed Din, Muhammad Ayman Zaharin and Suhaili Sapun.
Get PDFOur main research deals with how Polygamy is affecting Muslim women in a multicultural society in Malaysia. We do our research by focusing on the Muslim Family Law, a law that only applies to Muslims. We will look at the complexities of implementing a law based on the Qur 'an in a modern multicultural society. Dealing with the complexities means touching upon or going into detail about subjects such as human rights, modernisation, patriarchy and identity. The aim is to understand the contemporary debate about the Polygamy by interviewing people in the debate and ask them to think about, what are the problems? What causes these problems? And how can we solve them? We are focusing on the law because it is a way to understand how women are affected in a basic and practical way. With polygamy our aim is not only to study the impact of the law and the problems women in polygamous marriages are faced with, but the whole idea of forbidding or allowing polygamy in Malaysia. The debate about the Muslim family law will be put into a bigger theoretical framework. This means analyzing the debate and our interviews in a discussion between universal and relativistic values, between a modern interpretation and a traditional interpretation of Islam. Most of all, we want to show how the Muslim family law is affecting women
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
